Chapter 8 | |
1 | O LORD, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens. |
2 |
Out of the
mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine
enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger. |
3 | When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; |
4 |
What is man, that thou art mindful of
him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?
|
5 |
For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels,
and hast crowned him with glory and honour.
|
6 |
Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy
hands;
thou hast put all things under his feet:
|
7 | All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field; |
8 | The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas. |
9 | O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! |
